Abstract :
The reprolysin ht-d was compared to several human MMPs for the ability to cleave a peptide substrate representing the processing site of human pro-TNF. The rank order of inhibitor potency for a series of hydroxamic acids was also compared among these enzymes and for inhibition of TNF release from human white blood cells. The results suggest that ht-d is a better model TNF convertase than are the human MMPs. © 1997 The DuPont Merck Pharmaceutical Company. Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.
